Caerphilly, Glenn, specifically about a mile north west of the Castle, originally on land that had previously had a factory building wings for spitfires during the ww2 years.

Okay, some time ago, well, last year, someone posted a lyric teaser on this thread. Luckily, I knew who the singer was & the song. Eve of Destruction by Barry McGuire.

So, I know the following isn't exactly prog. rock, but hopefully, people of a certain vintage, or age, may know this.

The title of the song please & the singer. No cheating, Google is banned.

"All the criminals & the crooks & the spies
are free to drink Martini & watch the sun rise."

Don't forget, no cheating. Fetchies are honorable fellows, oh, & ladies.

I'm going to stick my neck out and say this doesn't come from a song I know. Well done with setting a new poser though :)
